This group is a place to share your creative, visual stories of love, pride, awareness, fear and hope through drawing, painting, photography, and more.
You should have seen Gwen’s face. She was very proud that her picture was in a video. I think even more proud of herself that her picture will help raise awareness for her sister. Thank you.
Thanks and Congratulation to all the children that participated on this wonderful awareness initiative, and made this video possible!
We tried to include as many drawings as we could, unfortunately, time is critical on video.
The good news is that this group is the perfect platform to share your drawings. stories and more.
Thank you again, We hope you enjoy it!
what a great job you all did on the video!!! for those of you as old fashioned as me that have a dial up modem, it only takes about 50 minutes to download it, but it is worth the wait. i am pleased you used talans drawing and i am pleased he sees me with a big smile. now i have to try to live up to that. thanks for all you do for so many.
What talented artists we have here!! Wonderful to see expression through art! Great song choice and wonderful video my friend.
I love it, it’s tender video and I love the song too :’’’’-) Ale x
we arrange group gathering for mothers and diabetic children who sit drawing their feelings about diabetes,now they,especially girls are writing their feelings about life on large in memoirs and some write poems
through art many are encouraged to pour their frustration about any thing in paiting,drawing or writing.
our aim to publish a book to be sold for the sake of diabetics in need in our country
Thanks for the video. I sent it to friends to give them a better understanding of what we go through. I cry every time I see it. Tomorrow our family is going to sit down and draw!
Thank you Susan, this means we fulfilled our goal. Please post the drawings in this group so we can all keep learning from our children! 
What a great way to get children involved and draw awareness to juvenile diabetes, one of the fastest rising types according to the Gerald J. Friedman Diabetes Institute in NYC.
I liked this video very-very much! thank you!
Very proud

I am new to this group and would like to know if others have used ART in their everyday lives with diabetes . . . as Adults? I love anything creative and sometimes draw or paint as a means of Mindful reflection.
